Nike (NYSE: NKE) reported Q4 EPS of $0.49, $0.01 better than the analyst estimate of $0.48. Revenue for the quarter came in at $8.24 billion versus the consensus estimate of $8.28 billion.
Greater China revenue rose 23%, ex. FX, or 18% on an unadjusted basis.

“Our consistent growth is fueled by innovation, which is why fiscal 2016 was such a breakthrough year for NIKE in everything we do,” said Mark Parker, President and CEO, NIKE, Inc. “From product to manufacturing to how we serve our consumers – more personally and at scale – we’ve raised the bar of what’s possible. It’s a great time to be in sports, and the NIKE Brand has never been stronger. Fueled by our unrivaled roster of athletes, fiscal 2017’s calendar of sport moments promises to build on our business momentum and inspire consumers.”*
- Inventories for NIKE, Inc. were $4.8 billion, up 12 percent from May 31, 2015, driven by a 6 percent increase in NIKE Brand wholesale unit inventories, increases in average product cost per unit, and growth in our DTC business, partially offset by changes in the value of inventories due to foreign currency exchange rates.
- Cash and short-term investments were $5.5 billion, $467 million lower than last year as growth in net income and proceeds from the issuance of debt in the second quarter were more than offset by share repurchases, investments in infrastructure and working capital, higher dividends, and a reduction in collateral received from counterparties to foreign currency hedging instruments.
